What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Diners rave about the exceptional quality of the Tochigi Wagyu beef and perfectly cooked steaks, often highlighting the great value of multi-course meals. While the cozy, family-run atmosphere and friendly service are frequently praised, one reviewer noted an issue with steak preparation and reheating. The unique side dishes and desserts also receive commendation.
"The Hamburg with 4 kinds of cheese was really delicious! We also had the grilled mushrooms which were also great! Place feels cozy, didnt need to wait for a table. Friendly service and great value for price"

"I ordered the Hamburg meal with cheese medium and it came to the table literally crawling off the plate raw in the center and barely cooked on the outside.
I told the waitress and literally watched as they threw it in the microwave for 45 seconds and back on the plate. It arrived at my table completely well done.
A microwave has no place in a steakhouse. I was not very happy 😑
The soups while very small, were very tasty, both mushroom and corn ✅"

"The most impressive meal we’ve had in Japan so far! Worth every penny. Our group had made a trip out to Nikko for the temples and were craving Waygu steak. There are options to get multi-course meals here which are actually such a steal. I got Meal A (~42 USD$) which was 150g of sirloin steak, an appetizer of smoked salmon, mushroom soup, a salad and a sorbet/cheesecake dessert. Every single course was insanely good and well-presented. Must-visit family run joint if you’re ever in town. It’s a bit of a hole-in-the-wall atmosphere but that’s when you know the food slaps."
